limit the range of the randomNumber variable from 0 to 9. Use the version of nextInt() that takes a parameter specifying

  Random randomGenerator = new Random(9);
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt();
RandomTest.java 
Random randomGenerator = new Random(9);
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt();

It looks like you accidentally added the parameter to the Random constructor instead of to the nextInt method.

And here's another hint: 0 through 9 is a total of 10 choices.
